Tommy Robinson has been explaining his disappointment at attending what he thought would be aa Koran burning event that turned out to be a Korean Barbeque.

Robinson, speaking exclusively to The People’s Friend said “I got invited to a Koran barbeque. I thought to myself that this is excellent so I went along with several volumes of the Koran I had stolen from a shop. I’d even put on my special book burning outfit.”

Robinson explained how the trip didn’t quite go as planned. “When I arrived there was some slitty eyed bloke wanting us to sit down. I ordered a drink and then the staff brought this sort of heat plate that they put in the middle of the table. I said to one of the waiters that it would take all afternoon to get the books to ignite with that.”

Robinson then said, “After that they wheeled out a trolley with various cuts of meat on it and some hot sauce. It was really disappointing as everyone just seemed to sit there cooking the meat. I tried to burn one of the menus but it was covered in plastic and I just ended up getting our table evacuated because of the fumes.”

Robinson said the worst part was that the whole evening had taken him away from important work filming a local grooming gang. He said, “I was supposed to be outside a hairdresser as that’s where the grooming gang is. They’re linked to a nail bar I covered last week that had a huge grooming operation on their hands.”
